Améliorer la communication médecin-patient en rhumatologie: la compréhension du patient est-elle réellement vérifiée?

Effective communication between physicians and patients in rheumatology is essential for optimal disease management. However, verifying patients' understanding remains inadequate, leading to treatment errors and poor adherence. Techniques such as "teach-back" and the use of visual aids can improve understanding. It is crucial for physicians to take the time to ensure patients understand the instructions to enhance clinical outcomes and patient quality of life.
